NSB steam locomotive 25a No. 227, built 1911 by Hamar Jernstøperi & Mek.
Verksted. 42 units were built since 1909. No. 227 was used for shunting at Hamar
until 1970. It weighs 25.9 t and has a maximum speed of 40 km/h. As I couldn't get
enough distance to the locomotive, I took three photos and assembled them in
Panoramamaker, so the wall behind the locomotive looks a little strange.

NSB 49c 470 "Dovregubben", built 1940, in service until 1962. The usual problem in
railway museums: Big steam locomotive in a not much bigger house, I needed to put
three photos together and compose this panorama to give this impression (and still
some parts are cut off).

NSB type 49c no. 470 "Dovregubben" built 1940 by Krupp AG Essen.
1'D2'h4+2'2', 1530 mm diameter of driving wheels, service weight
153.1 t, 90 km/h. These locomotives, developed for the Dovre line
between Oslo and Trondheim, were Norway's most powerful steam
locomotives, built 1935 to 1941. The first three (49a series)
were made by Thune & Hamar, followed by an order to Krupp AG
Essen for nine more (of which only two were delivered, seven were
destroyed in a world war bombing before delivery) and two by
Thune made by the same plans. Four more were never completed due
to the war and the post-war decision to order diesel locomotives
instead. In 1957 they ended regular service, replaced by diesel.
The preserved No. 470 stands in a rather small shed which makes
it difficult to take pictures of the whole locomotive, so here
is a detail of the cylinder and wheels.
